I've heard so many great things about it, but it just didn't do it for me. I felt like nothing happened.
It probably doesn't help that hate-to-lovers isn't exactly my favorite trope, and I also tend to dislike slow burn romances. This book had both of those things.
I also have to admit that the fact that it was several lacking some steam! I'm not even gonna say I'm sorry about that. Part of a good romance novel to me is the steam. This book had one sex scene and it happened in chapter 24, I believe, and it wasn't really all that good. There was potential for so much more, the chemistry was definitely there!
Don't get me wrong, I didn't hate this book. Not at all. It was sweet and swoony, I just expected more. I liked Lucy's character a lot, and I also grew to like Josh. I loved when Lucy told off Julia, and also Josh's dad.
I liked the writing style of the book, it was well written. It didn't read like a debut novel at all! I'm thrilled to read the author's next book.
